Bingo. I was generally aware of building pots and exercising pot control and implied odds, but I had not thought explicitly of stack to pot ratios, nor what types of hands preferred what ratios for what purposes.

Same for "pot-committed." I generally knew when someone was committed, but the commitment threshhold and planning hands around it is new to me.

Really good stuff.

I guess my real question was that the book implied that this is the way that current Pro NL players already think, and of course they way they should think.

I just wondered if those of you successful players believe this to be accurate. You've done a great job of keeping this SPR concept in the dark if you have.

Oh, and Binions, I was actually going to hold off on reading the book for a bit, but after reading your example in this thread, I had to start just to see what the heck you were talking about. Very glad I did now. Kudos to ya'.
